The same long-short approach applied outside the 100 largest listed companies by market capitalisation. Excluding the top 100 puts the mandate in mid- and small-cap territory, where coverage is thinner and mispricing more common — which is the case for the strategy, and equally the reason its drawdowns can be sharper. Short exposure is capped by SEBI at 25% of net assets.

+0.12%As at 13 Nov 2026

Change is measured against this scheme’s previous published NAV. The scheme page carries the full series, returns and documents.

A predominantly equity mandate that holds long positions in stocks it expects to appreciate while taking limited short exposure, through derivatives, against those it expects to fall. The short leg is capped by SEBI at 25% of net assets, so the strategy is directional rather than market-neutral: it aims to add return and damp drawdowns, not to remove market exposure.

+0.06%As at 13 Nov 2026

Change is measured against this scheme’s previous published NAV. The scheme page carries the full series, returns and documents.

An equity mandate that concentrates in a small number of sectors at a time and moves between them as the cycle turns, taking limited short exposure through derivatives. Concentration is the point and the risk: returns depend on the manager's sector calls rather than on broad market direction. Short exposure is capped by SEBI at 25% of net assets.

Change is measured against this scheme’s previous published NAV. The scheme page carries the full series, returns and documents.

A mandate that moves actively across asset classes — equity, debt, and where permitted REITs, InvITs and commodity exposure — rather than holding a fixed split, with limited short exposure through derivatives. The allocation decision itself is the strategy, so returns track the manager's judgement on which asset class to hold and when. Short exposure is capped by SEBI at 25% of net assets.

Taxation
ISID gives a general taxation table with rows only for Specified Mutual Funds and Non-Equity Funds (equity exposure below 65%); it does not fix a single tax category for this strategy and has no equity-oriented row. Tax on income distribution under the IDCW option: slab rates plus applicable surcharge and cess for residents, 20% plus applicable surcharge and cess for non-residents; Nil for the Mutual Fund. Capital gains: short-term gains on Specified Mutual Funds (irrespective of holding period) and on Non-Equity Funds other than Specified Mutual Funds (holding up to 24 months) at slab rates plus applicable surcharge and cess; long-term gains on Non-Equity Funds other than Specified Mutual Funds (holding more than 24 months) 12.50% without indexation benefit (for non-residents also without foreign exchange fluctuation benefit). TDS 10% on income distributed above Rs 10,000 for residents; for non-residents the lower of 20% plus surcharge and cess or the DTAA rate, subject to a valid Tax Residency Certificate. The ISID's risk factors add that if the equity allocation falls below the threshold for an equity-oriented fund (more than 65% in equity shares of domestic companies) in a financial year, the strategy may be treated as a debt-oriented fund for that year. Full details deferred to the SAI.
Dividend
Growth Option and Income Distribution cum Capital Withdrawal (IDCW) Option, with Payout and Re-investment facilities, available under both Regular and Direct Plans, which share a common portfolio. IDCW dispatched within 7 working days from the record date. (This scheme is the Regular Plan - Growth option.)

₹12.9801
+0.37%As at 13 Nov 2026

Change is measured against this scheme’s previous published NAV. The scheme page carries the full series, returns and documents.

A mandate that holds both equity and debt, with limited short exposure through derivatives on either leg. The debt allocation is what separates it from an equity long-short strategy — it is meant to steady returns across the cycle rather than to maximise them in a rising market. Short exposure is capped by SEBI at 25% of net assets.

Taxation
Document gives a general MF taxation table, not a fixed single category for this scheme: IDCW income taxed at investor's slab rate + surcharge/cess (residents) or 20% + surcharge/cess (non-residents, subject to DTAA/TRC); capital gains on "Non-Equity Funds" taxed as STCG at slab rates or LTCG (holding >24 months) at 12.50% without indexation. However the scheme's own risk factors caution its equity allocation can range 25%-75%, so it may fail equity-fund tax qualification in a given year and instead attract debt-fund tax treatment.
Dividend
Growth & IDCW options available
